Is it from a German-speaking country?

fromwien · « **Reply #4 on:** March 27, 2025, 04:13:26 PM »

Not easy to answer correctly: Partly, yes

D-type · « **Reply #5 on:** March 27, 2025, 05:19:09 PM »

Partly. Presumably this is a body from one country with an engine from another and the chassis and running gear from one or the other?
So, my next question is: Has it a German engine?

Masters?

Just to check the obvious impression: Is it a modified Porsche 928?

Still a front-engined V8, or has there been a drastic mechanical change?

Wendax · « **Reply #14 on:** April 29, 2025, 12:18:50 PM »

Is it still a coupe with covered side windows like panel van? Or is it a roadster with a hardtop?
Hard to tell by the bad quality picture.

Sorry, haven't found any other picture of that car than that. May be your questions could be answered clearly, after anybody found a picture of better quality.

I think the man behind the puzzle car won't be happy to be known as a tuner

Wendax · « **Reply #18 on:** May 12, 2025, 02:16:42 AM »

Anything to do with Frank Rinderknecht's Rinspeed company?

Not to know about

anything to do with Sbarro?

fromwien · « **Reply #21 on:** May 12, 2025, 05:17:30 AM »

Yes! LOCKED for pnegyesi

pnegyesi · « **Reply #22 on:** May 12, 2025, 05:48:53 AM »

Obviously it is missing from the site listing every Sbarro creation

Is it a mule for the Sbarro Challenger?
